Pereira, who frequents the Pedra de Gávea mountain in Rio de Janeiro, needed time to get used to the terrifying view from the tip of the cliff; according to Metro, the first time he went to the top, he could only sit on the edge.

However, it only took a few more trips up for him to flirt with gravity by literally dangling off the edge.

Now, you're probably wondering,

Why would anyone want to do this?

Well, Pereira explains,

I love living on the edge! I know people think it's dangerous and crazy but it makes me feel alive. It is really high and I do just hang on using my arm strength. I have to trust myself not to fall.

And as he and his girlfriend become more and more comfortable with dangling 2,769 feet above the Atlantic, their photos only get crazier.
